Prayer: Psalms 86:11-15 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name. (12) I will praise thee, O Lord my God,
with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore. (13) For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.
(14) O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them. (15) But
thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.
John 8:30-44 As he spake these words, many believed on
him. (31) Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on
him, If ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples
indeed; (32) And ye shall know the truth, and the truth
shall make you free. (33) They answered him, We be
Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man:
how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? (34) Jesus
answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever
committeth sin is the servant of sin. (35) And the servant
abideth not in the house for ever: [but] the Son abideth
ever. (36) If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall
be free indeed. (37) I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but
ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
(38) I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye
do that which ye have seen with your father. (39) They
answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus
saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would
do the works of Abraham. (40) But now ye seek to kill me,
a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of
God: this did not Abraham. (41) Ye do the deeds of your
father. Then said they to him, We be not born of
fornication; we have one Father, [even] God. (42) Jesus
said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love
me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither
came I of myself, but he sent me. (43) Why do ye not
understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my
word. (44) Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of
your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the
beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no
truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his
own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Notes:
 Satan murdered the whole creation in the Garden
of Eden but Jesus came and saved it.
2 Chronicles 18:1-23 Now Jehoshaphat had riches and
honour in abundance, and joined affinity with Ahab. (2)
And after certain years he went down to Ahab to Samaria.
And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and
for the people that he had with him, and persuaded him to
go up with him to Ramothgilead. (3) And Ahab king of
Israel said unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go
with me to Ramothgilead? And he answered him, I am as
thou art, and my people as thy people; and we will be with
thee in the war. (4) And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of
Israel, Enquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to
day. (5) Therefore the king of Israel gathered together of
prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we
go to Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they
said, Go up; for God will deliver it into the king's hand. (6)
But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the
LORD besides, that we might enquire of him? (7) And the
king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man,
by whom we may enquire of the LORD: but I hate him; for
he never prophesied good unto me, but always evil: the
same is Micaiah the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let
not the king say so. (8) And the king of Israel called for
one of his officers, and said, Fetch quickly Micaiah the son
of Imla. (9) And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of
Judah sat either of them on his throne, clothed in their
robes, and they sat in a void place at the entering in of the
gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before
them. (10) And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made
him horns of iron, and said, Thus saith the LORD, With
these thou shalt push Syria until they be consumed. (11)
And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to
Ramothgilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver it
into the hand of the king. (12) And the messenger that went
to call Micaiah spake to him, saying, Behold, the words of
the prophets declare good to the king with one assent; let
thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and
speak thou good. (13) And Micaiah said, As the LORD
liveth, even what my God saith, that will I speak. (14) And
when he was come to the king, the king said unto him,
Micaiah, shall we go to Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I
12/20/14 - Teacher: Bro. Buie
The Israel of God 2515 E. 75th Street, Chicago, IL. 60649 PH. 800-96-BIBLE
forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and they shall
be delivered into your hand. (15) And the king said to him,
How many times shall I adjure thee that thou say nothing
but the truth to me in the name of the LORD? (16) Then he
said, I did see all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as
sheep that have no shepherd: and the LORD said, These
have no master; let them return therefore every man to his
house in peace. (17) And the king of Israel said to
Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would not prophesy
good unto me, but evil? (18) Again he said, Therefore hear
the word of the LORD; I saw the LORD sitting upon his
throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right
hand and on his left. (19) And the LORD said, Who shall
entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at
Ramothgilead? And one spake saying after this manner,
and another saying after that manner. (20) Then there came
out a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will
entice him. And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith? (21)
And he said, I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the
mouth of all his prophets. And the LORD said, Thou shalt
entice him, and thou shalt also prevail: go out, and do even
so. (22) Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying
spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the LORD
hath spoken evil against thee. (23) Then Zedekiah the son
of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah upon the
cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD
from me to speak unto thee?
Notes:
 Jezebel was a priestess of Baal, a female minister,
not a prostitute.
 Her daughters are the women who stand in the
pulpit, a position God never gave them.
2 Corinthians 11:1-4, 13-15 Would to God ye could bear
with me a little in [my] folly: and indeed bear with me. (2)
For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have
espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a
chaste virgin to Christ. (3) But I fear, lest by any means, as
the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your
minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in
Christ. (4) For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus,
whom we have not preached, or [if] ye receive another
spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which
ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him]. 13
For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers,
transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. (14)
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an
angel of light. (15) Therefore [it is] no great thing if his
ministers also be transformed as the ministers of
righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
Notes:
 Another Jesus = Satan/false prophets
 Bear = contend with, argue, challenge

Revelation 12:1-5 And there appeared a great wonder in
heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under
her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: (2)
And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and
pained to be delivered. (3) And there appeared another
wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having
seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his
heads. (4) And his tail drew the third part of the stars of
heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon
stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered,
for to devour her child as soon as it was born. (5) And she
brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with
a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to
his throne.
Notes:
 Woman = Children of Israel
 Great red dragon = Satan & the Gentile Dynasty
o He shows us in the form of the nations he
rules over.
 1/3 part of the stars = 1/3 of the angels in heaven
 Her Child = Jesus
 Not only does Satan have ministers, he also has
governments that he controls.
Revelation 13:1-4, 11-12 And I stood upon the sand of the
sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven
heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and
upon his heads the name of blasphemy. (2) And the beast
which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as
[the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion:
and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great
authority. (3) And I saw one of his heads as it were
wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and
all the world wondered after the beast. (4) And they
worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast:
and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the
beast? who is able to make war with him? 11 And I beheld
another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two
horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. (12) And he
exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and
causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship
the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

Beast = The Gentile Dynasty
Leopard - Greek Empire
Bear - Medo/Persian (Russia/Iran) Empire
Lion - Babylonian
Dragon = Satan
Wounded head = the fall of the Roman Empire in
476 AD
Healed deadly wound = the rebirth of the Roman
Empire (European Union)
2 Horns =
o The Political/Military Leader of the E.U.

The original Babylonians were Hamites. They
were conquered and the Chaldeans (Gentiles) took
over their land.
1 Corinthians 10:15-17, 20-22 I speak as to wise men;
judge ye what I say. (16) The cup of blessing which we
bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The
bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body
of Christ? (17) For we being many are one bread, and one
body: for we are all partakers of that one bread. 20 But I
say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they
sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye
should have fellowship with devils. (21) Ye cannot drink
the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be
partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. (22)
Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than
he?
Notes:
 There is only One Spirit, One Gospel and One
Word and ALL of God's servants are supposed to
serve him the SAME WAY, not multiple ways
(religions).
 Gentiles = Europeans/White people
o They are the ones ruling the world.
 Celebrating Xmas, Easter and Sunday, etc. is
serving Satan, not God.
Daniel 10:1-6, 11-14 In the third year of Cyrus king of
Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was
called Belteshazzar; and the thing [was] true, but the time
appointed [was] long: and he understood the thing, and had
understanding of the vision. (2) In those days I Daniel was
mourning three full weeks. (3) I ate no pleasant bread,
neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I
anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
(4) And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as
I was by the side of the great river, which [is] Hiddekel; (5)
Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a
certain man clothed in linen, whose loins [were] girded
with fine gold of Uphaz: (6) His body also [was] like the
beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his
3
eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in
colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the
voice of a multitude. 11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a
man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak
unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent.
And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood
trembling. (12) Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for
from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to
understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy
words were heard, and I am come for thy words. (13) But
the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and
twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes,
came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of
Persia. (14) Now I am come to make thee understand what
shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision
is for many days.
Notes:
 A Certain man = Gabriel
 Gabriel was held up by Satan (Prince of the
kingdom of Persia) for 21 days until Michael came
and helped him to get away.
Satan, falling like lightening from Heaven
Ezekiel 28:1-3, 11-17 The word of the LORD came again
unto me, saying, (2) Son of man, say unto the prince of
Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart [is]
lifted up, and thou hast said, I [am] a God, I sit [in] the seat
of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou [art] a man, and
not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:
(3) Behold, thou [art] wiser than Daniel; there is no secret
that they can hide from thee: 11 Moreover the word of the
LORD came unto me, saying, (12) Son of man, take up a
lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of
wisdom, and perfect in beauty. (13) Thou hast been in
Eden the garden of God; every precious stone [was] thy
covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the
onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the
carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of
thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast
created. (14) Thou [art] the anointed cherub that covereth;
and I have set thee [so]: thou wast upon the holy mountain
of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the
stones of fire. (15) Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from
the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in
thee. (16) By the multitude of thy merchandise they have
filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned:
therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of
God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the
midst of the stones of fire. (17) Thine heart was lifted up
12/20/14 - Teacher: Bro. Buie
The Israel of God 2515 E. 75th Street, Chicago, IL. 60649 PH. 800-96-BIBLE
because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by
reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I
will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
Notes:
 King of Tyrus = Satan/Cherub angel
 Mountain of God = 3rd Heaven
 Prince of Tyrus = Satan
 Seas = People
 There were only 4 beings in the Garden:
1. God (The Tree of Life)
2. Adam
3. Eve
4. Satan (Tree of knowledge of good/evil)
Revelation 12:7-12 And there was war in heaven: Michael
and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon
fought and his angels, (8) And prevailed not; neither was
their place found any more in heaven. (9) And the great
dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and
Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out
into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. (10)
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come
salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and
the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is
cast down, which accused them before our God day and
night. (11) And they overcame him by the blood of the
Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved
not their lives unto the death. (12) Therefore rejoice, [ye]
heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters
of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto
you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath
but a short time.
Notes:
 Woman = House of Israel
 Sun = Jacob/Israel
 Moon = Jacob's wives
 12 Stars = 12 tribes of Israel
 Great red dragon/Serpent = Satan
 The woman's child = Jesus
 Stars of heaven = Angels
 1/3 of the angels fell with Satan and were cast
down to the earth.
 7 heads & 10 horns = Nations that Satan rules over.
 The War in heaven occurred before MAN was
created.
 It's obvious Satan didn't want to leave Heaven and
wants to go back and his ministers/servants want to
follow him there as well.
Luke 10:1, 17-18 After these things the Lord appointed
other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his
face into every city and place, whither he himself would
come. 17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying,
Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.

(18) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall
from heaven.
Notes:
 Satan's foremost desire is to return to Heaven.
Isaiah 14:12-15 How art thou fallen from heaven, O
Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the
ground, which didst weaken the nations! (13) For thou hast
said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt
my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the
mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: (14) I
will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like
the most High. (15) Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell,
to the sides of the pit.
Notes:
 Lucifer = Light bringer/bearer
 Son of the morning = Angel
 Satan wants to go home (Heaven) and everyone
who wants to go there is pursuing his desire.
 Ground = Earth
 Homecoming = going back to where you came
from. MAN did not come from heaven, we came
from the Earth.
Lake of Fire
Revelation 20:1-3, 10 And I saw an angel come down from
heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great
chain in his hand. (2) And he laid hold on the dragon, that
old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a
thousand years, (3) And cast him into the bottomless pit,
and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should
deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should
be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake
of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet
[are], and shall be tormented day and night for ever and
ever.
Notes:
 1000 years = Jesus' day of Rest
 Gog & Magog = Russia
 Second death = Lake of fire
 The Saints will reign on the earth with Jesus for a
1000 years.
Acts 1:6-12 When they therefore were come together, they
asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore
again the kingdom to Israel? (7) And he said unto them, It
is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the
Father hath put in his own power. (8) But ye shall receive
power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye
12/20/14 - Teacher: Bro. Buie
The Israel of God 2515 E. 75th Street, Chicago, IL. 60649 PH. 800-96-BIBLE
shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all
Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the
earth. (9) And when he had spoken these things, while they
beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of
their sight. (10) And while they looked stedfastly toward
heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in
white apparel; (11) Which also said, Ye men of Galilee,
why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus,
which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in
like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. (12) Then
returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet,
which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
Notes:
 This was the last time Jesus was on the Earth.
 Jesus will return and his feet shall stand upon the
Mount of Olives in Jerusalem.
 Two Men = Two Angels
 Holy Ghost = The Word of God
Zechariah 14:1-5, 9, 16-17 Behold, the day of the LORD
cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
(2) For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle;
and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the
women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into
captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off
from the city. (3) Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight
against those nations, as when he fought in the day of
battle. (4) And his feet shall stand in that day upon the
mount of Olives, which [is] before Jerusalem on the east,
and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof
toward the east and toward the west, [and there shall be] a
very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove
toward the north, and half of it toward the south. (5) And
ye shall flee [to] the valley of the mountains; for the valley
of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee,
like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of
Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come,
[and] all the saints with thee. 9 And the LORD shall be
king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one
LORD, and his name one. 16 And it shall come to pass,
that every one that is left of all the nations which came
against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to
worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast
of tabernacles. (17) And it shall be, that whoso will not
come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to
worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them
shall be no rain.
Notes:
 Day of Battle = When Israel left Egypt

Russia and her allies will cross Turkey (the divide
between Eastern & Western Europe) and destroy
everything in sight as they head to the Western
Nations.
All of the Saints met the Lord in the air and will
join him in the battle against the nations.
1 Thessalonians 3:12-13 And the Lord make you to
increase and abound in love one toward another, and
toward all [men], even as we [do] toward you: (13) To the
end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness
before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ with all his saints.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 But I would not have you to be
ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that
ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. (14) For
if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them
also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. (15) For
this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we
which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord
shall not prevent them which are asleep. (16) For the Lord
himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the
voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the
dead in Christ shall rise first: (17) Then we which are alive
[and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the
clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be
with the Lord.
Notes:
 Them which are asleep = the Dead
 Sleep in Jesus = those who are covered with the
blood of Jesus at the time of their death.
 Trump of God = 7th Trumpet
 Caught up = to meet the Lord in the air
 We will forever be with the Lord on the Earth, not
heaven, since ALL the Saints, the Angels and Jesus
will come down after meeting in the air.
Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every
eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all
kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so,
Amen.
Daniel 7:1-3, 13-18, 27 In the first year of Belshazzar king
of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head
upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of
the matters. (2) Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision
by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove
upon the great sea. (3) And four great beasts came up from
the sea, diverse one from another. 13 I saw in the night
visions, and, behold, [one] like the Son of man came with
the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and
they brought him near before him. (14) And there was
given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all
12/20/14 - Teacher: Bro. Buie
The Israel of God 2515 E. 75th Street, Chicago, IL. 60649 PH. 800-96-BIBLE
people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his
dominion [is] an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass
away, and his kingdom [that] which shall not be destroyed.
(15) I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of [my]
body, and the visions of my head troubled me. (16) I came
near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the
truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the
interpretation of the things. (17) These great beasts, which
are four, [are] four kings, [which] shall arise out of the
earth. (18) But the saints of the most High shall take the
kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever
and ever. 27 And the kingdom and dominion, and the
greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be
given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose
kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions
shall serve and obey him.

 Son of Man = Jesus
 Ancient of Days = The Father
 4 Beasts/Kingdoms = The Gentile Dynasty

 Saints = People in the 1st Resurrection
Luke 1:26-33 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was
sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, (27)
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of
the house of David; and the virgin's name [was] Mary. (28)
And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, [thou that
art] highly favoured, the Lord [is] with thee: blessed [art]
thou among women. (29) And when she saw [him], she
was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what
manner of salutation this should be. (30) And the angel said
unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with
God. (31) And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb,
and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. (32)
He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the
Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne
of his father David: (33) And he shall reign over the house
of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
Notes:
 The place of the throne of David is in Jerusalem.
Psalms 132:1-7, 11-16 LORD, remember David, [and] all
his afflictions: (2) How he sware unto the LORD, [and]
vowed unto the mighty [God] of Jacob; (3) Surely I will
not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into
my bed; (4) I will not give sleep to mine eyes, [or] slumber
to mine eyelids, (5) Until I find out a place for the LORD,
an habitation for the mighty [God] of Jacob. (6) Lo, we
heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the
6
wood. (7) We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship
at his footstool. 11 The LORD hath sworn [in] truth unto
David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will
I set upon thy throne. (12) If thy children will keep my
covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their
children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore. (13)
For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired [it] for his
habitation. (14) This [is] my rest for ever: here will I dwell;
for I have desired it. (15) I will abundantly bless her
provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread. (16) I will also
clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout
aloud for joy.
Notes:

Revelation 3:20-21 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock:
if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come
in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. (21) To
him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my
throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my
Father in his throne.
Notes:
 Door = Your mind
 Sup with = Teach the word
 Overcame = overcoming ourselves and our desires
and weaknesses.
Zechariah 8:1-5, 20-23 Again the word of the LORD of
hosts came [to me], saying, (2) Thus saith the LORD of
hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was
jealous for her with great fury. (3) Thus saith the LORD; I
am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of
Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and
the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain. (4)
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; There shall yet old men and
old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every
man with his staff in his hand for very age. (5) And the
streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in
the streets thereof. 20 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It
shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the
inhabitants of many cities: (21) And the inhabitants of one
city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray
before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go
also. (22) Yea, many people and strong nations shall come
to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before
the LORD. (23) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those
days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out
of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the
skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for
we have heard that God is with you.

Matthew 19:27-28 Then answered Peter and said unto him,
Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall
we have therefore? (28) And Jesus said unto them, Verily I
say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the
regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of
his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the
twelve tribes of Israel.
Notes:
 Jesus' throne of glory is the throne of David.
 Forsake all = to leave behind everyone and
everything that is against God and his Word.
 Regeneration = Resurrection
 The 12 Tribes have not been discarded by God and
will dwell in Israel again.
Revelation 5:1-10 And I saw in the right hand of him that
sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside,
sealed with seven seals. (2) And I saw a strong angel
proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the
book, and to loose the seals thereof? (3) And no man in
heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to
open the book, neither to look thereon. (4) And I wept
much, because no man was found worthy to open and to
read the book, neither to look thereon. (5) And one of the
elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the
tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the
book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. (6) And I
beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four
beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it
had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which
are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. (7)
And he came and took the book out of the right hand of
him that sat upon the throne. (8) And when he had taken
the book, the four beasts and four [and] twenty elders fell
down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps,
and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of
saints. (9) And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art
worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for
thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood
out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
(10) And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and
we shall reign on the earth.

Matthew 25:31-34 When the Son of man shall come in his
glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit
upon the throne of his glory: (32) And before him shall be
gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from
another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
(33) And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the
goats on the left. (34) Then shall the King say unto them
on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit
the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the
world:
Notes:
 Kingdom = The Father's Kingdom/New Jerusalem
 No flesh & blood beings will exist in His kingdom.
Revelation 21:1-4, 23-24 And I saw a new heaven and a
new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were
passed away; and there was no more sea. (2) And I John
saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God
out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
(3) And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold,
the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with
them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall
be with them, and be their God. (4) And God shall wipe
away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more
death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any
more pain: for the former things are passed away. 23 And
the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to
shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb
is the light thereof. (24) And the nations of them which are
saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth
do bring their glory and honour into it.
Notes:
 All the nations will still exist but they will be filled
with immortals, not flesh & blood people.
Extra Verses:
Luke 22:28-30 Ye are they which have continued with me
in my temptations. (29) And I appoint unto you a kingdom,
as my Father hath appointed unto me; (30) That ye may eat
and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones
judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Notes:
 The 12 Apostles will be resurrected and sit with
Jesus in Jerusalem on 12 thrones.
o They are not nor are they going to heaven.

Psalms 122:1-5 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us
go into the house of the LORD. (2) Our feet shall stand
within thy gates, O Jerusalem. (3) Jerusalem is builded as a
city that is compact together: (4) Whither the tribes go up,
the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to
give thanks unto the name of the LORD. (5) For there are
set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
Notes:
 This is prophecy speaking on the Temple that Jesus
will dwell in & the thrones within it.

1 Corinthians 6:1-3 Dare any of you; having a matter
against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before
the saints? (2) Do ye not know that the saints shall judge
the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye
unworthy to judge the smallest matters? (3) Know ye not
that we shall judge angels? how much more things that
pertain to this life?
